conduct the Office until his successor should be

the position. Mr.. Scott was postmaster here for
twelve years, but dismissed with the rest of
the offensive partisans" two years ago, and
when it became known that he was virtually
postmaster again the Democracy became greatly
enraged and determined thai it should not be.
They at once went to wora to secure the ap-
pointment Of j. D. Fisher. wao had been Dur
hams deputy. Mr.. Durham Las conducted the
Office to the entire satisfaction of the patrols,
and felt he consulting their best interests in
deputizing Mr.. Scott, he being experienced,
while Fisher kew nothing of the duties required
of him., The postofhce has been removed to tie
old stand, whore Mr.. Scott holds the fort though
the leading Democratic citizens have boycotted
the Office and mail all matter at the depot as far
possible. The Democrats are very much en-
ragged and denounce Durham for going back
on the party" while the Republicans are elated.

Finale Of Duck Creek. EN- bree.

Judge Aldridge this afternoon rcn-
dered his decision in the celebrated
Duck rcek-Embree case which was
taken under advisement last Friday.
After short rehearsal Of the facts
and circumstances connected with the
case the Judge briefly summed up his
decision as follows:
lie said that if Judge Mccall, who
granted the injunction restraining the
holding of the election, had jurisdic-
ton in the matter at issue the parties
were guilty of the charge of con-
tempt, and that the question of juris.
diction hinged upon three points.
First-There is no appeal from the
county judges decision to order an
election. That with him rests the
sole responsibility Of investigating
and seeing that tho law has been fully
complied with in petitioning all cleo.
ticn, aud after his decision has been
rendered and an order for the election
issued the district court can have no
power over the subject matter in
volved.
Second-In this case the appeal
bond had been filed and approved
which act invested the supreme court
with power 10 act and took from the
district court al jurisdiction.
Third-The vote u holding an
election is political qucsii,n and
not one for the courts TO interfere
with. That when people assemble to
vote nobody's rights are invaded,
and that the question Of whether or
not tho people shall vote is not a
question for the courts. That the cx-
orcise of authority in this direction by
the courts would be dangerous, and
for the reasons given the r. spondents
were discharged.
